What Causes Constant Pain Beside The Navel Radiating To The Sternum?
Good Afternoon! I am needing advice to kinda calm my mind at the moment. I am seeing my PCP tomorrow morning but I am in pain and it s not getting any better. I have a constant pain just to the right of my navel on the right side. When I press on the area it instantly makes me nauseous and it radiates pain to my sternum. At night I have to lay on my left side to relieve any of the pain. It tends to get worse when I lay on my back
hi healthcare magic user, this type of pain could be due to pancreatitis, colitis, right sides ovarian cyst, adhesion in bowel. if I would have been your doctor I would have advised you to get pelvic and abdominal ultrasound done. along with few blood tests like liver and kidney function test, complete blood count. will need complete details of clinical history and examination.
